What is distilleries insurance?

Distilleries insurance is specialist cover for distilleries of all kinds, and the unique risks they face. This can include cover for your buildings and contents which, along with business interruption cover, will ensure that you can stay afloat following unexpected events, such as fire, flood, or theft. It can also include product liability insurance, which can cover all the costs you may incur following a product recall or a customer complaint.
